Around the clock, corporate workers and business people sit behind their desks and counters working, selling, working and selling. We agree that the work must be done and the money must be made, but at what cost? As several medical practitioners and blogs have stated, prolonged sitting has negative effects on one’s health like diabetes, weight gain, depression, vascular diseases, and even some cancer! That’s why we’re hosting the Abuja Business Olympics 2024 soon!
